 note = {Japanese river improvement works on flood control have mainly been conducted by the Japanese Government since Meiji era. On these works, government engineers have used modern flood control facilities made from artificial materials, e.g., concrete, steel, etc. Such river improvements have destroyed nature in many river channels. Recently, many people have resisted the superfluous artificial improvements and have wished that the different river improvement works should have been conducted in line with preserving nature in rivers. Nature conservation has considerably become the priority in many major projects in Japan. This goal has been inculcated among Japanese government officials who are involved in river improvement planning. Unfortunately, the Japanese Government does not have a favorable method of listening public opinions, particularly relating to natural river conservancy. It is hoped that such a method will be created in the very near future. One conservancy system is the flood control system established in the second decade of 1900 which is financed by the general people living in the Great Miami river basin in U.S.A. This study investigated the flood control history in the watershed. The results from this investigation are as follows: In the history of flood control in U.S.A, the system used in the Great Miami river basin was the first experience in which flood control extended over a wide watershed. New construction techniques were also used in the construction of the dam-reservoir system. Construction, maintenance and control have been supported through taxes collected from people living in the Great Miami river basin. Through years, the system and method used in this basin have become the model of other large watershed flood controls in U.S.A. Through a study on the flood control history of the Great Miami river basin, useful recommendations can be obtained in consonance with planning new flood control methods in Japan.},
